The
kit is an easy build but does not depict the boat as shown
from the photos supplied by the San Francisco Maritime
Museum. I changed the pilot house windows and build the
ventilator from scratch. In fact, most of the
superstructure is scratch built. Had working lights until
the mast wiring shorted out. Also installed an old diesel
sound system that makes plenty of noise, I just can't get it
to sound like an engine. The boat is powered by a Graupner
600 motor and a dry cell battery that provides plenty of
ballast. Runs great!
